How many times have you made a “quick†stop at the mall only to end up walking around for hours in 4 inch heels? Have you ever wanted a pedicure but looked down, saw close toed shoes then opted to forgo the pedicure? With the Flexflop, you can comfortably stay in the mall as long as you want without getting blisters.
“Flexflops are ‘emergency’ flip flops that fold in half and come packaged in a matching pouch.†The thin pliable foam bottom separates the Flexflops from your average flip flop. The material makes it easy to fold the flexflop in half without breaking it in two. If you try to bend your average foam flip flop in half you may end up with two pieces. Flexflops are more durable, comfortable and more stylish than the flimsy paper slippers that are sometimes given to clients after a salon pedicure. The Flexflop has a bit of cushioning, so there is substance between your foot and the ground and the sliding straps will adjust to fit and flatter most feet.
Flexflops can be plain or super “blinged†out and can (conceivably) be worn in various states of dress, from casual to dressy. I can see the Flex Flop being a big hit amongst women who dance for three hours in four inch heels but then have to walk several blocks when the party is over. Flexflops are available in a variety of colors and three fabrics: terry-cloth, microfiber and twill. They make great bridal party gifts and the pouches can be customized using crystals. After performing the task of being a bridesmaid, I would much rather a pair of Flexflops with a pouch that says, “best bridesmaid ever,†than an engraved picture frame.
My Flexflop is white terry-cloth, with a little bling and after wearing it a few times, it got soiled. Even though the manufacturer didn’t suggest washing it, me being the frugalista that I am, I washed it in room temperature soapy water. Guess what? It survived. Flexflop gets my CCC+ rating. Cute, comfortable, convenient…and the “+” because the product is environmentally friendly.
Flexflops retail from $25 for a plain pair, up to $68 for the most “blinged†out. Visit www.flexflop.com to buy online or to find a location near you.
